If dodging military service is reason not to be the commander in chief then how do you justify Bill Clinton.. He mastered the draft dodge and manipulated the system so he would never serve.
Realistically the last president to serve would be Jimmy Carter….Unless you count the Reserves and the National Guard. I mean technically that is military but…
In today’s world, especially among millennial voters, and among Bernie supporters, draft dodging the Viet Nam war makes Trump a hero! But, of course among baby boomers, and among those with even half a brain, draft dodging makes Trump a goat!
John Wayne also dodged the draft, but being a member of the VFW, I can say it really doesn’t matter when we get down to it, but it’s nice if we serve our country in other ways.
Ronald Reagan sat out the war, and later on passed on scenes from movies he was in (or saw) as first-person narrative facts. At least The Duke didn’t go that far, for the difference it makes.

I must admit, I’m curious about John Oliver’s wife’s voting intentions but I know, I know, none of my bloody business.

Mission accomplished. Now that we have them steaming over a year and a half long campaign season we can get back to funneling money to the rich.

@Kip WYou ever wonder if the war hero Big George Bush was ashamed of Little George Bush? I like to think so.

Notice the independents of either gender don’t have a proactive choice in the general election.

The entire party platform of the Republican party has been plagiarized from a trial that took place in Salem around 1693.
